I am trying to connect to a sql server from my asp.net application via windows authentication using the Network Service account. When I try to create a login for the ComputerNameNetwork Service account I get the following error.
I know I haven't mistyped it because I clicked the check names button and it showed as a valid id.
So what gives?

Create failed for Login 'PREMIERDCNetwork Service'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.Smo)
For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&ProdVer=9.00.3042.00&EvtSrc=Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.ExceptionTemplates.FailedOperationExceptionText&EvtID=Create+Login&LinkId=20476
Microsoft recommends that you do not use the Network Service account to run the SQL Server service (see http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143504.aspx).
Can anyone tell me what the drawbacks are of doing this?
I was wondering if there was any way to set the service account on sql server 2005 express to Local System via command prompt.
To giva some background to this issue, I am installing 2005 express via command prompt, however, the default service account is network I believe. However, when running this, I keep getting an "error 3415" whenever I try to attach a database, which states that the files are "read only", which they are not. However, when setting the service account to local or set the security mode to windows authenticaiton, I can attach just fine.
The parameters I use to install are pretty standard:
So I was wondering if there was some way to set the service account to local system to local using some command prompt parameter. OR if there was another way around the error 3415 that will enable me to attach a database, that I do not know about that I can use, preferrably via command prompt, but anything will be fine at this point.
I'm trying to connect to a database using a service account that we got created. The ID is an AD account and was added to the db as such. When I try to connect to the database using the account with the password I get [login failed for domainid]. The DBA mentioned that its setup to use windows auth, however, I can't connect with this service account using windows Auth, due to I'm using to connect via code.
How can I connect to the database from my code using this ID?
I have the ID and pwd in my code to connect with, does the ID have to be setup differently in the Database?
During install of SQL Server 2005, we can of course use a domain account or the built-in system account for running the services. I lean toward domain for obvious reaons but would like to know a +/- to each option and why I'd choose one over the other and what consequences or limitations one may encounter if I choose one over the other.
I have several DTS jobs that runs well as a job with my nt login account for the SQL agent service startup account, but if I use the System account they fail with this error. " Error opening datafile: Access is denied. Error source: Microsoft Data Transformation Services Flat File Rowset Provider"
The data has change access to the System account under the NT security.
Hello! I have the following problem. I developed CLR Stored Procedure "StartNotification" and deploy it on db. This sp calls external web service. Furthermore, this sp is called according with SQL Server Agent Job's schedule. On my PC SQL Server works under Local System account and this web service is called correctly (Executed as user: NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM). But on ther other server the following exception is raised during job running: Date 17.04.2007 16:42:10 Log Job History (FailureNotificationJob)
Step ID 1 Server MSK-CDBPO-01 Job Name FailureNotificationJob Step Name MainStep Duration 00:00:00 Sql Severity 16 Sql Message ID 6522 Operator Emailed Operator Net sent Operator Paged Retries Attempted 0
Message Executed as user: CORPmssqlserver. A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user defined routine or aggregate 'StartNotification': System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the permission of type 'System.Net.WebPermission, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed. System.Security.SecurityException: at System.Security.CodeAccessSecurityEngine.Check(Object demand, StackCrawlMark& stackMark, Boolean isPermSet) at System.Security.CodeAccessPermission.Demand() at System.Net. The step failed.
What is the reason of this behaviour? Unfortunately I do not have direct access to this server. I have the following guesses: 1) CORPmssqlserver may have not enough permissions to call web service 2) Something wrong with SQL Server account's permissions 2) Something wrong with SQL Server Agent account's permissions I will take the will for the deed. Thanks.
Hi all, I do understand that it is highly recomended to have aserprate user (perfered a domain user account) for each of the SQL Server service and SQL Agent service. What is the reason behind that? (Someone told me to not run the service with an account that has a powerul privilegs! - I don't undrstanmd this point can you explain it please?) What is the diffrent between: 1- Local System account 2 -Network Service account
Okay now this is weird, today the Reporting Services was not running and here are the entries in the event log:
Event Type: Error Event Source: Service Control Manager Event Category: None Event ID: 7041 Date: 12/12/2007 Time: 9:47:22 User: N/A Computer: TFS Description: The ReportServer service was unable to log on as DOMAINTFSREPORTS with the currently configured password due to the following error: Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer.
Service: ReportServer Domain and account: DOMAINTFSREPORTS
This service account does not have the necessary user right "Log on as a service."
User Action
Assign "Log on as a service" to the service account on this computer. You can use Local Security Settings (Secpol.msc) to do this. If this computer is a node in a cluster, check that this user right is assigned to the Cluster service account on all nodes in the cluster.
If you have already assigned this user right to the service account, and the user right appears to be removed, a Group Policy object associated with this node might be removing the right. Check with your domain administrator to find out if this is happening. For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp
I am the administrator of the machines and I can assure you that no domain policy has changed for a couple of weeks. What should I look for?
I noticed that when installing on a Windows XP machine, the installation results in a SQLServer instance which is configured with Built-in account = Network Service. However, with the same command line used on Windows 2000 machines, the configuration winds up being Built-in account = Local System. My understanding is that the default configuration is supposed to be Local System.
What can I do to ensure that the instance configuration is always Local System during the silent installation? This is required otherwise, under the Network Service configuration, it creates a messy situation to attach DBs.
The account i setup to access the db in Sql 2005 Proper on the Production serve is Represented by the name in the above example as “aspuser�. I created this user in security, logins. And I gave permissions to this on the Db level “create procedure delete, select, update insert.�
I get a error when i run the page in the browser that says “login failed for aspuser.�
I know virtual directory is configured properly. I can run aspx page in the directory with out a db connection, without and error.
I am having trouble installing sql express from a command line on an XP o/s other than English, I know French and German have the problem I suspect this is caused by setting the sql account to ="NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM" my guess is that this is a localized string.
I get the following error
SQL Server Setup could not validate the service accounts. Either the service accounts have not been provided for all of the services being installed, or the specified username or password is incorrect. For each service, specify a valid username, password, and domain, or specify a built-in system account.
I have recently upgraded my databases from SQL 2000 to 2005. In 2000, I could set the network affinity so that sql server was only accessible from one of the two network cards. I cannot find how to do this in sql 2005. Is there a way?
In my installation, I have two network cards in each server. The "A" network adapter connects to the "A" hub, and the "B" adapter connected to the "B" hub. Traffic on trhe "B" hub is my private, non-routable network, This is where I want the SQL Server traffic to run. The A hub traffic is the public network. This gives me the ability to isolate SQL Server from the outside world.
my local instance of reporting services is named and therefore I think causing me a problem when I issue the following command to set up an unattended account...
rsconfig -s localhostinstance name -e -u domain nameuser name -p password
the message I keep getting is "No Reporting Services instance found on local host.". I tried a couple of things including replacement of the word localhost with my computer name but to no avail. I tried single and double quotes around the -s parameter but no success.
The SQL Server is installed on SERVER-A. SERVER-A and SERVER-B are Windows 2003 servers on the same Windows 2003 domain. The SQL Server and SQL Server Agent services are running under the domain account SQLSERVICE. SQLSERVICE is a member of the Domain Admins group. The Domain Admins group is part of the local Administrators group on SERVER-B. The SQLSERVICE account has also explicitly been given Full Control to the folder referenced by \SERVER-BSHARE xp_cmdshell use has been enabled on the SQL Server.
If I run the following command in SQL:
exec master.dbo.xp_cmdshell 'whoami'the following is returned: DOMAINSQLSERVICE If I change the command to access the c: drive instead of a network drive, it executes successfully.
Can anyone shed some light on why I still cannot access any of the files in this folder using xp_cmdshell?
hi.. i do not know which to choose when my installation comes to the service account page .. should i use the local system or write the domain user account ? i use domain user account .. but what is my domain ?
MSSQLServer and SQL Server Agent services under NT are running under a system account under our domain (setup many moons ago) for which we have lost the passsword. Is there any way we can recover these passwords?
I am trying to set properties on a SQL Server7, but when I get to the tab for 'Startup Service account', it is greyed out. Also, the same for properties for SQL Server Agent.
Why can't I change it?
To schedule jobs, and have SQL mail, don't I need to set up a Startup Service Account?
Has anyone ever converted from running SQL Server under the Local System account to running under a Domain User account?
I have often installed SQL using a Domain User account, but I am inheriting a couple of SQL Servers that were set up to run under Local System. I have never had to convert "on the fly" before.
If you have any input or insights, I would be grateful.
I just set up a SQL 2005 Server about a month ago that we will be moving all of our scattered DBs onto. I basically set it up with the default settings and didn't touch anything special, until I tried to install Microsoft System Center Essentials 2007 in our environment. I had problems getting it to use our SQL server, and a forum post told me to change all of the service accounts for SQL to use the LocalSystem login. So here are my service accounts:
SQL Server Integration Services - NT AUTHORITYNetworkService SQL Server FullText Search (MSSQLSERVER) - LocalSystem SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) - LocalSystem SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) - LocalSystem SQL Server Reporting Services (MSSQLSERVER) - LocalSystem SQL Server Browser - LocalSystem SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER) - LocalSystem
So Sandisk makes this software called CMC. It's for controlling their enterprise USB drives. And their software won't install. It errors out saying that it couldn't drop the database on our SQL server (but it doesn't exist). If I make an empty DB by the same name, it sees it, and then errors out anyway. I am using the SA login for testing (I was using a purposed SQL account before) so I don't think it's a rights issue. Sandisk says it should work, and they suggested I use SQL server express. But we run VMs, and running SQL server in another VM is going to use more of our memory pool. Plus we want centralized backups and all that.
Do my service account logins have anything to do with it? Can someone tell me what these should be set to by default so I can change them back?
Here's a trace I did when I tried to install the software:
-- network protocol: TCP/IP set quoted_identifier on set arithabort off set numeric_roundabort off set ansi_warnings on set ansi_padding on set ansi_nulls on set concat_null_yields_null on set cursor_close_on_commit off set implicit_transactions off set language us_english set dateformat mdy set datefirst 7 set transaction isolation level read committed
set implicit_transactions on go drop database [CruzerDb] go IF @@TRANCOUNT > 0 ROLLBACK TRAN go
And here's more info if needed:

By default does CLR code run under the SQL Service Server account or the SQL Agent Service Account? Does anybody have a link to BOL or MSDN???
My assumption is its under SQL Server Service Account.
I'm trying to satisfy the DBA's security concerns in regards to CLR Code. If the account it runs under (Agent or service) has zero privliges will a dba still be able to maintain the server? Wouldnt all their backups work under a privilaged account that isnt the SQL Server Service Account?
I come from an Oracle background, and am having trouble getting to grips with SqlServer
I've installed SqlServer 2005 and created a Database called Midas, which is owned by SA
I've created a login called ServiceAccount. I want this login to have 'select', 'update' and 'insert' permission on specific tables in the Midas database. How do I do this?
I understand Sql Server Integration Services by default uses"NT AuthorityNetwork Service" account as service account. Is running SSIS using "NT AuthorityNetwork Service" account is good or should we create a domain account to run the SSIS service.
On the screen "Service Account" during SQL 2005 Developer Edition, I am choosing built-in System Account = Local System and uncheck the Customzie for each service account. that means, that this system account is set to all services,
I am trying to install an SQL Express 2005 instance and have the built-in system account set to "Local system" because I was having some security issues while trying to attach a database. Is there a command line switch that will allow me to do this?
If there isn't then I will have to make sure the clients uncheck the "Hide advanced settings" checkbox and I would rather not have them do anything but hit the next button.
I am installing RS2005 on Windows server 2000 with IIS 5.0. Everything is fine in configuration tool except service account. It is empty. I have added ASPNET account in reportservice user group and tried to add <machinename>ASPNET to <WebServiceAccount>. It is still empty. Any idea?
Hi All, We are upgrading from Sql Server Express to SQl Server 2005. As part of the installation process, it is not asking us to specify a service account for various services, and we are not sure what to specify. (This was handled automatically with Express). Any ideas? Thanks. Claude.
We have changed NT Administration Password. Now how to reassign the new password setting for sql server service account. As right now all schedule jobs are getting failed & needs to be executed manually.
Ugh! Someone changed the password of our SQL Server service account. It is called syssql, and it is used by the MSSQLServer and SQL Executive services to log in at startup. After the password was changed, we noticed that replication wasn’t running, and since I know that replication uses the Executive service, I restarted that service using the new password. That worked to get replication working again, and since the boxes were production machines I didn’t restart the MSSQLServer service with the new password yet. Now, our syssql account keeps on locking up every so often, and scheduled tasks that use xp_sendmail stopped working, and alerts stopped sending. Is this happening because of the MSSQLServer service still being logged in with the old password? I suspect that the SQL Mail logs in through the MSSQLServer service, which is still using the old password, and the login failures are causing the syssql account to lock. Any other ideas???
